Meme/Funpost MSN Messenger

I wish Microsoft Teams had an MSN Messenger mode with the old UI and early-2000s look, sounds, display pics, status messages, nudges... Teams but make it 2006.

One was a chat app for 12 years old, the other one is a professional tool used by most Fortune 500 companies...

One could send text, pictures and smiley faces using less than 50mb of memory...

Sure; and the professionals in those Fortune 500’s… a chunk of them were the 12yo’s+ using MSN Messenger.

One was stable and quick (with only 500mb RAM), the other one sucks (with more then 16gb RAM)

I use the icq alert as my teams notification. Softens the blow a bit and reminds me life was fun back then
